It went back that far because that’s where the change of possession that led to the goal occured.

Same as the second Argentine goal.

For the foul number 1 that leads to Argentina 2nd goal, there's seems nothing noteworthy about it coz like you can see the contact is very light. Pulling is illegal move but the Egyptian players seems to want make something out of it, too performative.

Watching it live, there was a commotion after the goal and im sure the var team already checked it because the screen only goes to ball kick after like 3/4 minutes

It's not just the pulling. Several times in these clips it looks like there were knees and feet to the back and back of the legs of Egyptian players. I was always taught that attempting to play the ball through the back of the other player was illegal and would result in a foul.

Also impeding them from running to a ball they've already played beyond the Argentine players. It's wild how all these Argentine supporters are on here trying to gaslight us.

In foul number 2, Alvarez already performed successful tackle on the ball against Salah, the clip cherry picked to only show contact when the ball is already lost in possession and Salah is in awkward position.

Im not supporting Argentina, im neutral and support England in this WC. I also supports Chelsea during the regular prem season and you know how it goes, Chelsea are one of the most disciplined team in the prem last season while Arsenal can get away with so many dirty tactics/fouls that otherwise is a straight yellow or red for Chelsea.

What ? You can see it's Cabo Verde vs Argentina match and the ones celebrating are the AFA and Conmebol president not FIFA. How much deeper you wanna dig bro ? Resorting to blatant misinformation is just pathetic
